Casamoko Shepherds is a professional German Shepherd Breeder located
in Rhode Island.  We strive to breed high quality German Shepherds that
come as close to the AKC standard as possible.  Health and temperament
are our main concerns and being a veterinarian makes the health part
essential.  Our dogs are all well socialized and attend training classes from
an early age.  Casamoko Shepherds strives to produce puppies that can do
it all-so far we have puppies that are competing in conformation (dog
shows), obedience, agility, rally, herding, tracking, schutzhund, and of
course many that are wonderful companions and pets.  

We typically have one litter of puppies a year and are not a kennel that
produces numerous litters per year and lives off of the dogs.  This is strictly
a hobby and is done with the intention of improving the breed and our lines.  
Good breeders do not make money off their dogs or puppies because the
money is put back into the dogs.  This is definitely the case at Casamoko
Shepherds, as each year we spend more on the dogs than what we make.  
This is why this is a hobby and not a profession or a business.  Thankfully
my work as a veterinarian allows me to support this hobby.

WE HAVE PUPPIES 1 MALE PUP AVAILABLE !!

Dakota had 3 male puppies born May 20, 2010!!!-please contact us if
